Order instructions
To demonstrate the knowledge you have gained throughout the course to a food product.

This will include: the chemical purpose and functionality of ingredients; the use of processing equipment and its associated challenges; and the resolution of processing issues in maintaining a nutritious, high quality, microbiologically safe product.

Background and Audience
You are a product developer at a major international food company tasked with developing a reduced-fat peanut and chocolate flavoured non-dairy beverage. This product will be shelf stable and marketed as ready-to-drink and will consist of only 8-10 ingredients. You are presenting a written report to your company’s R & D team.

Assignment details
Address the following in your report:
(i) Propose ingredients and additives and provide rationale for the use of these in the product.
Include all chemical structures in your discussion of product functionality. N.B. there is no need to provide chemical structures for peanut and cocoa since these are complex foods with multiple components, however a discussion of general structures in relation to functionality is still required.
(ii) Choose your optimal processing and packaging equipment as well as parameters which would result in a product with desired food safety and quality characteristics.
(iii)Discuss production issues or concerns that may arise which are specific to the characteristics of your food and ways in which to resolve them.
(iv)Address the negative and positive consequences of your processing method.
